Someone made the same comment to me the other day.

I said "Either it's the Americans or the Chinese spying on my, either way I'm fucked". I feel like it's safe to assume that most consumer hardware is backdoored/cracked by one intelligence agency or another.

Do we have proof that's the case with Apple though? Not a fanboy, but I casually remember reading that they weren't willing to sacrifice their security and capitulate to the gov on this point.
